Centerview Capital Consumer is an operationally-oriented private equity firm focused on the U.S. consumer middle- and upper-middle market.

We seek to leverage our operational expertise and deep consumer industry relationships in partnership with existing owners and management to achieve strategic and operational excellence. Our ability to assist management in building businesses and brands differentiates us from other consumer-oriented private investment firms.

Over our collective careers, we have helped to build or revitalize some of the most recognized brands in the consumer industry.

Centerview Capital’s operational focus is led by Jim Kilts, formerly Vice Chairman of Procter & Gamble, CEO of Gillette and Nabisco, and Executive Vice President and Head of Kraft Foods. Centerview’s principals subscribe to an operational philosophy rooted in fact-based management, intellectual integrity, analytical rigor, open communication, simplicity and collaboration. By employing this philosophy consistently over the past 30+ years, Centerview’s principals have been instrumental in the generation of over $40 billion in investor gains.

Centerview Capital benefits from its strong relationship with Centerview Partners, a financial advisory business that works with companies to help solve the strategic, financial and operational issues that they face.
